Building the workforce that’s required for the future of the semiconductor industry requires collaboration between industry, academia and government. Workforce development initiatives, industry partnerships, and educational workshops are needed to strengthen talent pipelines and connect more people to opportunities across the ecosystem.

Next week on LinkedIn Live, we’ll be joined by Shari Liss, SEMI Vice President of Global Workforce Development and Initiatives, and Michelle Williams-Vaden, SEMI Foundation Executive Director, to discuss the latest workforce development initiatives shaping the industry’s future.

Join us live at 8:30 a.m. PDT on August 11 to hear updates on industry partnerships, the National Network for Microelectronics Education (NNME), and opportunities to help develop the next generation of semiconductor talent: https://t.co/HaZDSyTTX0

As global demand for semiconductors continues to rise, policies that strengthen domestic manufacturing are essential for long-term competitiveness. We commend the August 5 statement from Senate Finance Committee Chairman @MikeCrapo and Ranking Member @RonWyden, reaffirming support for the Section 48D Advanced Manufacturing Investment Credit (AMIC). This follows SEMI's recent Tax Day event, where senior tax executives from our member companies visited Capitol Hill to discuss the importance of AMIC to the semiconductor supply chain.

“The joint statement from senators Crapo and Wyden in support of the Section 48D tax credit highlights the crucial role it plays in strengthening U.S. semiconductor manufacturing, creating jobs, and advancing national security,” said SEMI President and CEO Ajit Manocha. “Last month we shared on Capitol Hill how the looming AMIC expiration adds uncertainty for our member companies in the semiconductor supply chain, some of whom are actively planning to expand operations to meet rising chip demand, and we applaud the senators’ leadership for this pivotal tool in attracting semiconductor ecosystem investment.”

Last week, our member executives took the industry’s case to Capitol Hill to preserve and strengthen the Section 48D Advanced Manufacturing Investment Credit.

It’s the incentive behind billions in new fab construction and thousands of high-wage American jobs — and the investment decisions being made today will shape where chips get built for the next decade.

@SEMIAmericas President Joe Stockunas, Senior Director of Public Policy & Advocacy Mary Bischoping, and member company representatives met with members of Congress including Senators Chris Coons, John Cornyn, Mark Kelly and Todd Young and Representatives Mike Carey, Michael McCaul and David Schweikert.

The conversations were substantive, bipartisan, and encouraging. Thank you to the members and staff who gave us their time.

SEMI brought together leaders from across the semiconductor, electronics design and manufacturing supply chain for advocacy meetings on Capitol Hill today focused on extending and expanding the tax credit for investments in building up the U.S. semiconductor ecosystem.

Industry representatives met with Members of Congress, including those serving on the House Ways and Means and Senate Finance Committees, to urge swift passage of a multi-year extension of the Section 48D Advanced Manufacturing Investment Credit (AMIC) before it lapses at the end of the year.

The Advanced Manufacturing Investment Credit (AMIC) has become a critical asset in accelerating semiconductor growth in the United States to maintain competitiveness.

The semiconductor industry is scaling rapidly to power emerging technologies, like artificial intelligence and quantum computing—but that growth requires sustained upfront investment. The AMIC’s 35% investment tax credit helps mitigate those costs, but the tax credit is set to expire at the end of this year.

The @SEMIAmericas advocacy team and many of our member companies are headed to Washington D.C. next week to represent the global semiconductor ecosystem and make a clear case for extending and expanding eligibility for the AMIC.

Hear more from Joe Stockunas, President of SEMI Americas.
